Buckle up, folks. We dive deep early and then go even deeper on the
topic of PHYSICS, TIME, MULTIVERSES, and other topics of Cosmology.
Alex Berg (former UCB artistic director, Convoy) briefly describes
his lifelong passion for physics and then proceeds to simply
discuss physics. We start with Newton, crush through Einstein and
proceed into theories of alternate dimensions, pre-Big Bang history
and tesseracts. Yep. Science-phobes should fear not: there is no
math in this episode. Also Anthony discusses Steve Martin's
late-career shift into bluegrass, and Will discusses the real-life
inspiration for Professory Moriarity. Further reading / viewing: A
